Short summary
The actuators of precise positioning based on LiNbO3 or LiTaO3 bimorph structures are considered. They consist of two joined plates: one of them lengthens and the other one shortens under the influence of an electric field and, as a result, the actuator bends. Such a device ensures small movements of probes in scanning probe microscopes, micro-electromechanical systems, micro-motors, etc. We determine the optimal orientations of the plates, ensuring the highest possible actuator displacements.
